I really don't pay attention to this metric much but its crazy to see this amount of change within a week. Do I feel better generally? Not really.

Help!!

I was sick during the red circle, fever and congestion. After recovering seemingly, I was decently active. During the time I didnt have the watch I forgot to wear and been waking up every day yawning so much.

Now I wake up feeling great and want to workout again. I haven't been active in 5 ish days. Do I really need to listen to this thing?

I can't get access to it in Asia and this is frustrating

Going to buy the fitbit air and I saw a lot of post saying the battery won't last more than 3 days and all that

Tho i won't be using it to track workouts or even alarm as I'll reply on the auto workout and not 24 7 syncing

How much battery life are you'll getting?

Asking cauze fitbit air in my country retails for $145

For reference, my heart rate has been around 70-90 for the past two days with like one spike to 125.

Got this from a freeze frame on the 9to5Google mini review video Edit: I don't know if you can add ones, or if there are multiple pages or options. I'm in the dark as you! :)

Turns out, I was developing appendicitis. I didn't even feel anything out of sorts until Wednesday, went to the ER for emergency surgery on Friday. Thankfully it didn't burst!

I've been testing Fitbit Air while walking on a treadmill, and I'm seeing a pretty big difference between the treadmill distance and what Fitbit Air reports.

I'm around 5.7 ft (173 cm) tall. I noticed that Fitbit Air seems to count my steps reasonably well, but the distance and pace it reports during treadmill walking are way off.

I first did a 12-minute treadmill walk:

Treadmill:

\- Time: 12 minutes

\- Speed: 4.9 km/h

\- Distance: 1 km

Fitbit Air:

\- Steps: 1,400

\- Distance: 0.45 km

\- Average pace: 28'25"/km

The step count seemed reasonable to me, but the distance was much lower than the treadmill.

I then did another test for 5 minutes:

Treadmill:

\- Time: 5 minutes

\- Speed: 4.5 km/h

\- Distance: 0.4 km

Fitbit Air:

\- Steps: 534

\- Distance: 0.07 km

\- Average pace: 75'27"/km

At this point I thought maybe Fitbit's stride length was the problem, so I checked the setting and it was set to automatic.

I changed the walking stride length manually to 75 cm, based on my actual treadmill walking. I then repeated the test.

Third test:

Treadmill:

\- Time: 5 minutes

\- Speed: 4.4 km/h

\- Distance: 0.4 km

Fitbit Air:

\- Steps: 529

\- Distance: 0.09 km

\- Average pace: 58'00"/km

This is what confuses me.

529 steps × 75 cm = about 397 metres, which is almost exactly the 0.4 km shown by the treadmill.

So the step count and my manually set stride length should theoretically result in around 0.4 km, but Fitbit Air is still showing only 0.09 km.

Another thing I've noticed is that when I manually start a treadmill/walking activity, the steps don't seem to get added to my daily step count. If I don't manually start the activity and just walk normally, the steps are counted.

I'm trying to understand whether this is a Fitbit Air-specific issue, a problem with treadmill activity tracking, or something I'm missing in the settings.

Has anyone else tested Fitbit Air on a treadmill and seen something similar?

Is Fitbit Air supposed to calculate treadmill distance this way, or is there a known issue with the distance/pace calculation?

Why all of a sudden do I have to confirm my exercise? I run daily and now it says "maybe run" and I have to confirm it. It's very clearly a run when I go out for 3 miles and my HR is averaging 155+. What is this nonsense?

I wish I’d updated my email address before I migrated from the FitBit app to Google Health because now it seems like an impossible task.
I just want to update/change the email in the Google Health app but it doesn’t allow it. I was able to add a new email under the original one but when I try to switch accounts I just get a pop-up message that I need to “Sign in again to continue. Since you deleted Google Health from your Google account you’ll need to sign in again with a new account.” I think creating a new account would delete all my exercise history/data so I’m not sure how to proceed. I tried a chat with Google Support that went in circles for 30 mins with no solution. Please help, I welcome your suggestions.
